General Strategy

Elf Song is a nice burden removing card. It is not often used because most players prefer Sam, Son of Hamfast, and you don't really need it as insurance, because corruption decks are rare. However, if adding Sam, SoH would make your fellowship too large and you still want to bid high, a few copies of this will help remove those starting burdens over the course of the game. If you're using Frodo, Reluctant Adventurer or Frodo, Mr. Underhill in Two Towers onwards, Brace of Coneys is a better choice, as it would cost one less twilight.
